But what are the chances of THAT happening. (Hint: It does.)

But it was who replaced them that really got reader’s attention. Hawkeye, Quicksilver and the Scarlet Witch—all conflicted and villains in their own right—became Cap ‘s new recruits creating a dynamic, unpredictable and exciting quartet that to many would become the Avengers’s heart and soul. So sit and back enjoy the evolution of Earth’s Mightiest Heroes as they battle Kang the Conqueror, the Mole Man, the Red Ghost, Count Nefaria, Baron Zemo’s Masters of Evil, the Mandarin and the Swordsman.

Cover by MARK TEXEIRA
Witness the very first adventures of your favorite mutants! From the moment Professor Xavier arrived on her doorstep, young Jean Grey knew things would change forever. But she was never prepared for how strange life at the Xavier Institute could be – or just how dangerous she truly was. Will she be able to harness her budding powers in time to prove herself a hero? Or will the ghosts of her past haunt her forever? Then, Hank McCoy never wanted to be different – and for a young mutant with a genius-level brain, camouflage comes easy. But only until a psychopathic terrorist with a god delusion kidnaps his father, and his life is brought into irrevocable confrontation with Charles Xavier and the X-Men. Also, the origin of fan-favorite X-Man Colossus is finally revealed. Deep in the wastes of Siberia, young Piotr Rasputin discovers his mutant abilities — and becomes the newest target of the ruthless KGB! Plus, from the first time he popped his claws, to the moment he joined the X-Men, Wolverine has had a rough life. See every gruesome detail here! Collecting X-MEN ORIGINS: COLOSSUS, JEAN GREY, BEAST, WOLVERINE, SABRETOOTH and GAMBIT.

Written by DANIEL WAY
Penciled by STEVE DILLON
Cover by GARY FRANK
Long ago, Kyle Richmond looked into the face of madness – now, it’s looking back at him. As a boy, Richmond – the man who would one day become Nighthawk – witnessed the senseless murder of his parents. There was no reason for their deaths, no provocation – they were just simply in the wrong place at the wrong time. It was a traumatic event that has left him scarred for life – and turned him into a hero more feared than the criminals he polices. Now, it’s happening again…but on a much larger scale. The people of Chicago – men, women and children – are dying in the streets, victims of a monster whose thirst for slaughter cannot be quenched, whose soul is a bottomless void and whose scars run even deeper than Nighthawk’s.
And it’s flashing a killer smile. Collecting SUPREME POWER: NIGHTHAWK #1-6.

The year is 1602, and strange things are stirring in England. In the service of Queen Elizabeth, court magician Dr. Stephen Strange senses that the bizarre weather plaguing the skies above is not of natural origin. Her majesty’s premier spy, Sir Nicholas Fury, fends off an assassination attempt on the Queen by winged warriors rumored to be in service to a mad despot named Doom. News is spreading of “witchbreed” sightings — young men bearing fantastic superhuman powers and abilities. And in the center of the rising chaos is Virginia Dare, a young girl newly arrived from the New World, guarded by a towering Indian warrior. Can Fury and his allies find a connection to these unusual happenings before the whole world ends? In MARVEL 1602, award-winning writer Neil Gaiman presents a unique vision of the Marvel Universe set four hundred years in the past. Classic Marvel icons such as the X-Men, Spider-Man, the Fantastic Four and Daredevil appear in this intriguing world of 17th- century science and sorcery, instantly familiar to readers, yet subtly different in this new time. MARVEL 1602 combines classic Marvel action and adventure with the historically accurate setting of Queen Elizabeth’s reign to create a unique series unlike any other published by Marvel Comics.

Cover by DENNIS CALERO
It was 1933, four long years after Wall Street crashed and took the rest of the world with it, and the Great Depression was just getting started. And so was the Goblin. A master at turning hopelessness into a commodity, the corrupt mob boss led a colorful gang of circus sideshow freaks — including the cannibalistic Vulture — in a corrupt stranglehold on the city. Peter Parker came of age during this time of struggle and hardship. Raised by his Uncle Ben and Aunt May, two stemwinding Socialists committed to positive change for the people, Peter would have been a boyish beacon of optimism in any other era. But in this world of noir, he was an embittered, angry young man on the search for justice. And then along came a spider. After a fated meeting with a mystical arachnid and its life-changing bite, he may have just inherited the force to honor the phrase, “If those in power can’t be trusted, it’s the responsibility of the people to remove them.” Collecting SPIDER-MAN NOIR #1-4.

Their father, Eric Magnus, is chief of detectives, corrupting the Brotherhood of New York’s Finest from the inside out. (All under the discretion of Boss Shaw, of course.) Anne-Marie Rankin has a special talent for being whoever you need her to be. And Magnus needs her, the better to get close to Unus is the Untouchable, a mob boss so good at staying alive it’s driving his rivals nuts. And Xavier? That discredited shrink sits in a jail cell, wondering what in the world his little refugees from the “Xavier School for Exceptionally Wayward Youth” are up to now. Other than staying one step ahead of Magnus, that is. But now Jean Grey is dead. And nobody is allowed to care — nobody that counts — because who cares about one of Xavier’s dead grifters? It’s not like there’s an angel out there looking out for what’s right. Or is there? Collecting X-MEN NOIR #1-4.

In 1935, Max Eisenhardt was just another schoolboy — who happened to be Jewish in Nazi Germany.

Named the Best Miniseries of 2008 by IGN,
X-Men: Magneto Testament follows Max Eisenhardt from 1935 to 1945 as he fights to protect his family and a Romani girl

atrocities of Auschwitz-Birkenau. Collecting X-MEN: MAGENTO TESTAMENT #1-5.

Theirs is a dangerous planet, but they have a new champion to protect them. And their world will never be the same again.

Stan’s back, and he’s brought the Fantastic Four with him! Stan Lee and Jack Kirby made pop-culture history during the 1960s with their landmark run on FANTASTIC FOUR. Unabridged for 102 consecutive issues, the legacy of their work together has influenced the imaginations of comic-book creators and pop-art innovators. And guess what? It’s time to make room for a 103rd issue!  A lost classic by Stan and Jack has made it into the hands of astonished FF fans everywhere! Featuring art by Kirby, much of which has never been seen by the public, this restoration project was finished off with scripting by Stan and inked by legendary FF delineator Joe Sinnott — marking a reunion of the dynamite combo that made the Marvel Age of Comics so scintillatingly super. Rounding out the contents are three other classic stories by Stan Lee that explore many different facets of the First Family and the universe they helped found. All have one thing in common: the heart, soul, wit and charm of Stan “The Man” Lee. Collecting THE LAST FANTASTIC FOUR STORY, FANTASTIC FOUR: LOST, FANTASTIC FOUR #296 & #543.
